    x86/spec-ctrl: Mitigate TAA after S3 resume
    
    The user chosen setting for MSR_TSX_CTRL needs restoring after S3.
    
    All APs get the correct setting via start_secondary(), but the BSP was 
missed
    out.
    
    This is XSA-377 / CVE-2021-28690.
    
    Fixes: 8c4330818f6 ("x86/spec-ctrl: Mitigate the TSX Asynchronous Abort 
sidechannel")

    (cherry picked from commit 8cf276cb2e0b99b96333865873f56b0b31555ff1)
